Adelina

Chapter 14: Date II

I look beside me and find Leonor putting her hand on her mouth. Does she feel bad?

I raise my head from the table and look at her while tilting my head. She burst out laughing, holds her belly.

I feel a strange temper in my head that turns my face to red. Is she laughing about what I have just said?!

"Sorry.... sorry. But I think you overreacted a little bit." Leonor says after laughing louder than anything I have ever heard, louder than that time when Hugo shouted in my ears because I was zoomed out on a family trip and he wanted to eat my sandwich.

"I didn't mean to. However, I am sorry about what I said." I apologize again. I don't think I will be able to raise my head from the table, so let it be there until everyone begins to speak again and forget what has just happened.

"Adelina, would you be more comfortable outside?"
I raise my head and nod as an answer for Mason's question.

It's really kind of him trying to make me comfortable.

He stands and so did I, he gestures for me to wall in front of him; I have never imagined that Mason is a gentleman, he has some kindness deep down in his heart, just little bit of kindness. Leonor holds my hand and follows me when I hear her brother telling her to stay here until I relax and to make her stop laughing. I tell him that there is no need to and I would like if she is with us; She is my best friend after all. My only friend.

"If it makes you feel better...... okay. Come Lilo."

"Hey! I hate that name!" She rolls her eyes and runs after us.

"So... why did you want to meet me rudely?" I like teasing him.

"Well..... I need to think of a nickname. A horrible one." He says with a smirk.

"What a devil."

"Adell, you know what is the best nickname for him." She says while looking at him in a devilish way. I tilt my head, waiting for the rest of the sentence.

"Leonor, no."

"This is for the stupid name you call me. His name is M.." Mason puts his hand on her mouth before she can continue. I wanted to know it.

"Ahh! Leonor. Stop being childish." She bites his hand, which makes me want to laugh out loud, but I try my best to hold it.

"You begin it!" She yells.

"We need to get rid of her. We won't be able to talk in a proper way here." Mason says while looking at me.

"Where should we go?" I ask

"What about..." His phone begins to ring before he can finish his words. But he declined the call.

"Maybe it's something important." I tell him as I see his face, he made a difficult expression so it's normal to be concerned. What if it is something important, and I am distracting him from answering his phone!

"No, no, it's nothing." He shakes his head while shoving his phone into his pocket.

Leonor looks at Mason and opens her mouth. "There is nothing important to him other than..." All of a sudden, a hand was grabbing Leonor's mouth to prevent her from continuing.

"Can you stay silent for only five minutes?!"

Am I supposed to do anything to calm them down? It's common between siblings to fight.

"Okay," I place my hands to my legs in an attempt to stand up. " I'll take my leave now."

"Wait, here we haven't finished talking."Mason's yell could be heard during Leonor's bubbling.
